Default Suggested Bumper Repair Adhesives

Hey all,

After driving around the other day, I noticed that my driver's side headlight sprayer was loosely hanging in the bumper. I took it out to find the black plastic bumped had cracked from the top downward, giving the sprayer's clip room to wiggle out. The crack isn't bad, and if I can patch it back together and get the sprayer back on, it wouldn't be noticeable. Anyone know of any strong, weatherproof plastic adhesive I could apply to do the job?

Thanks!!

i like the loctite 2 part epoxy. I have also used jb weld. plastic resin has never worked for me. a clean surface area with a mechanical tooth added, aids in the durability. pressure is a must if connecting pieces back together. good luck

this looks like it is pretty strong too

took my girls to lowes, they insisted that it was a must have. since they have used it to secure the screen in the tv (because that could fall out) hold down the toilet lid (because that may fly up on it own) the cheddar bunnies are stuck to the cheerios, a few mailing packages were sent out that the jaws of life will be needed to open, and all of the hair on our french bulldog has been secured(i assume to prevent shedding.) can't wait till they find the batman tape next time
